One of Bob Stuart's favourite demo discs for example is the Stereo DVD-A recording of ' Art Pepper meets the Rhythm Section ' from January 1957 because of the absolute quality of the recording on relatively primitive equipment.


my favourite recordist is Roy Du Nann
ex Capitol ,poached by Contemporary Jazz inthe late 50's LA
He recorded in their stockroom!
Neumann valve mics direct to 2 or 3 track Ampex
verb added in the mastering.
Roy was a radio/comms/signals guy in WWII
he was sent to England to master Radar techniques
Later in his career Roy was a little deaf
(cans to loud in signals)
That's why his recordings are so perfect imho.

Please check out the contemporary discography,its cool.
